George W. Bush: “He's showing the wear and tear of someone who's active and someone of his age.”

If any voters came hoping for a kind word and a hug, they’d have to settle for the kind word.

We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.

Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens.
